While booking our vacation package to Vegas through hotwire.com, we have added the grand canyon tour also.
SWEE tours GrandCanyon west rim tour price -- $129
Add sky walk -- $164
We stayed in Caesars palace, instead of picking us from the entrance, they suggested us to go to some other stop. It was confusing because we were new to Las Vegas, where as they picked few others right from the entrance.
Then we were transferred to the actual tour bus. Breakfast was provided.
I hate travelling in bus. Our tour guide Dwayne was good, funny and explained the tour well. He made the tour interesting by describing each and every detail during the trip. Also, he made enough stops(for photos/restrooms...) so the trip felt like easy going.
Once we reached the grand canyon, he handed us the skywalk tickets and we were told that we should finish all the visiting and return to the bus by 2:00 pm. There was ample time but we were not able to visit sky walk because the skywalk was closed for some time due to lightning. Lunch was provided at one of the visting spots.
Then on our way back to vegas, we visited hoover dam. The only thing I didn't like is the stop was made far away that we couldn't get a good view of the hoover dam.
Our guide mentioned that we would get the refund for skywalk, BUT WE STILL DIDN'T GET IT.
